Golden Turmeric Latté

Golden Turmeric Latté

It’s no secret that this summer hasn’t been very “summery”. Sure, we got spoiled with some spectacular 30 degree dock days, but those were usually incompassed by about 7 straight days of rain. Needless to say the wearer has been less than ideal and I

It’s been in the house for under two days, and there is only one slice remaining. I may or may not have eaten half the loaf… I’ll never tell. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and just straight up exhausted, then you need this banana bread in your life. Seriously, banana bread is therapeutic and delicious.

If you know me, you know I have an array of odd food obsessions. Hummus, anything with sweet potatoes, sushi, watermelon, just to name a few. I also adore nut butter, especially almond based nut butters (I’m not a fan of peanut butter). Honestly, I
